Aaria Bhatnagar, Community Outreach Director

Welcome!
​
Healing Connections is happy to have Aaria onboard as our Community Outreach Director!
​
Hi! I’m Aaria, the Community Outreach Director at Healing Connections. My focus is on building and nurturing referral networks, forming trusted relationships with community, and connecting clients with clinicians who feel like the right fit. My goal is to make the process of starting therapy feel welcoming, personalized, and supported from the very first point of contact. I’m passionate about creating pathways that make therapy feel more approachable and accessible to everyone.
​
I earned my Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a minor in Advertising and Public Relations from Quinnipiac University, giving me insight into both the clinical and communication sides of mental health care. My approach is also shaped by my time on Quinnipiac’s Accessibility Advisory Board as well as by my certifications in Mental Health First Aid and QPR Suicide Prevention, which trained me in crisis intervention and supporting access to care for all.
